WBB vs Michigan Directional School East
With the Joyous Destruction happening yesterday, figured I would save these until today, so here they are.
Opponent: Eastern Michigan University
Result: Win, 80-44
Date: 11/24, Home
Starters: Laila Phelia, Cam Williams, Taylor Williams, Jordan Hobbs, Lauren Hansen (same as last 4 games)
Injuries/inactives: none, everybody played by the end of the first quarter
Offense:
- First bucket featured 2 offensive rebounds before a Cam putback went down
- Scoring drought in first 4 minutes of third quarter, missed 6 shots along with 2 turnovers until two open threes from Brett broke through
- Hustle play from Brett leading to 4 offensive rebounds
- Phelia scored 15 points in the first half on 6-12 shooting
- A few possessions played without a point guard as both Hansen and Brown were off the floor. Looked a little messy, but so has our point guard play. We'll see if they try it more often.
Defense:
- Tended to double team and trap above top of the key
- Staying vertical down low and trying to force bad shots more often than go for a steal or block
- Macy Brown with hustle to get back on a Michigan turnover to regain possession, encouraging to see from the freshman
- Nobody in double digit points for EMU
Notable stats:
- Team was 50 percent from three point range, including Kampschroeder shooting 4-4
- 23 assists today, able to pass over and through Eastern
- Chyra Chyra Chyra, oi oi oi: Evans 7-8 for 15 points on 15 minutes, mostly in the fourth quarter
Overall:
- 14-2 by halfway through the first quarter, game effectively over. Not a phenomenal performance, but a good team effort. Everybody got double digit minutes besides Stuck who only got 6.
Miscellaneous:
- I watched the replay of this, as I was out of town with family and B1G+ skipped about 4 minutes of the stream in the second quarter. Thanks so much for this low quality product.

Thanks for the update. I was unable to go due to family obligations. Agree about BTN minus. I bought a one month subscription once for 3 hockey games. It was so bad I cancelled and haven't signed up since.
